All this on the eve of Barcelonahosting a G20 summit and UN climate change conference, with the police in hot pursuit fearing a widerterrorist threat.From Nîmes in the South of France, across the border to the sweltering humidity of Girona, Barcelona,Figueres and Cadaqués, The Barcelona Connection is a fast-paced, gripping page-turner sprinkled withblack comedy, blending the real with the surreal, art crime and mistaken identity ... and where the cluesat the crime scene might just be the mirror image of a long-lost work of art ...
